Important note: users on macOS with Intel chips should not upgrade to this version due to a critical bug causing app crashes in this release. For more details, see the 'Known Issues' section.

The headline feature of the latest update is Base support, but Status v2.33 also brings another key integration—Mercuryo as an in-app fiat on-ramp provider. This allows users to buy crypto directly through Mercuryo, including subscriptions and recurring purchases.
Additionally, this release introduces the watch account feature, gives users the ability to select transaction speed (Normal, Fast, or Urgent), and updates the app’s token list to ensure access to the latest tokens for seamless operations and swaps on supported chains.

IMPORTANT: This version includes a database migration. Make sure to back up your seed phrase in case of issues. Thank you

Please note that this version is a beta meant for testing purposes by core contributors. It's not meant for real use and makes no claims of security or integrity of funds or data in these builds.

Please report issues/bugs in the #general channel on the status community or via:

https://github.com/status-im/status-desktop/issues

macOS users: after you open Status.dmg and copy Status.app to the Applications folder, you will need to "right click -> open" when running it for the first time (due to new Apple requirements for notarization). You may need to "right click -> open" twice.

Before updating also backup your seed phrase:
